This tasty low sodium beef stew recipe cuts down on the number of vegetables that would have to be chopped in a more traditional stew. If you yearn for pieces of carrots and celery in your stew, they can be added in small amounts and cooked with the onions. An extra half cup of beef broth should also be added. Adjust the sodium content of the stew accordingly.

1. Crumble beef into a small stockpot. Add onion. Heat stockpot until beef starts to sizzle. Turn heat down to medium low. Cook, stirring often, until beef has lost its pink color. Break up meat into small pieces as it cooks. Drain fat.
